Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60D2002FBSL is determined by strict adherence to the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance value: 20 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W / 1/4W (exact match required)
• Composition: Metal Film (exact match required)
• Package type: Axial (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia x 0.344" L (exact match required)
• Series compliance: Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60 (exact match required)

The substitute parts listed below meet all these criteria. Variations in packaging format (Bulk vs. Cut Tape) and temperature coefficient do not affect electrical substitutability within the specified operating parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the RN60D2002FBSL within the specified operating parameters. Selection between alternatives should be based on the following factors:

RN60D2002FRE6: Identical electrical specifications to the main part. Available in Cut Tape packaging format with highest inventory availability (3782 pieces). Select this part when tape format is required for automated assembly processes.

RN60C2002FB14: Offers improved temperature coefficient performance at ±50ppm/°C compared to the main part's ±100ppm/°C. Maintains all other electrical and mechanical specifications. Available in Bulk packaging with 1526 pieces in stock. Select this part when enhanced temperature stability is required within the same operating range.

RN60D2002FB14: Identical specifications to the main part. Available in Bulk packaging with 1900 pieces in stock. Direct parametric equivalent suitable for standard applications.

All parts comply with the same military specifications (MIL-R-10509/1), feature flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and maintain RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status consistent with the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D2002FRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D2002FBSL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (20 kOhms ±1%, 0.25W, ±100ppm/°C) and mechanical dimensions. The difference is packaging format: RN60D2002FRE6 is supplied in Cut Tape format while RN60D2002FBSL is supplied in Bulk. Electrical performance and board-level compatibility are equivalent.

Q: What is the advantage of RN60C2002FB14 over the main part?

A: RN60C2002FB14 features a temperature coefficient of ±50ppm/°C compared to ±100ppm/°C for RN60D2002FBSL. This provides improved stability across the -65°C to 175°C operating range. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for military applications?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are part of the military-grade RN60 series and comply with MIL-R-10509/1 specifications. All feature flame retardant coating and moisture resistance required for military-grade applications.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format (Bulk vs. Cut Tape) affects only handling and assembly processes, not electrical performance. The component specifications remain identical regardless of packaging format.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided the design accommodates the specified packaging format. All substitute parts maintain identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, physical dimensions, and operating temperature range. No circuit redesign is required.
